As posted in the other thread we should have a meet up somewhere in/near town (or wherever is convenient) for those who are interested in making friends. I have met some of the lovely southern mums and now it's time to branch out as well!

If there is a day in the week that doesn't suit you, please post and I will try my best to accommodate everyone. If anyone knows a place in or near the city then feel free to suggest it. :)

I live in St Marys but am happy to go anywhere, including waaaaay up north if that suits everyone else! I have an almost 4 month old DD.

I'm in - only days that are completely out for me are Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Not sure where would be good?
Oh a bit about me - i am 26 and my DD is 15 months. I am also pregnant with my second child :D

Hi
I'd be very interested in meeting up. I live in Mount Barker but am more than happy to drive anywhere in or around the city for the chance to make some friends!
I am 30 and have 2 boys, nearly 3 years old and 13 months.
I am free any day but on Fridays the boys go to childcare, however if people don't mind me coming without the kids I can definately still come then.

I live in clearview, so just north of the city. I don't drive so i would prefer to meet in the city.

I have a 27 month old and a 9 month old. All days are good for me.:)

What about Wednesday next week?

Poppetfish, do you know of anywhere that might be good that is convenient to you? I'm not familiar with buses etc on that side of the city so if you pick somewhere that you know will be easy for you to get to, then maybe we can go there? :)

hi ladies

I'm keen but am a slight pain at the moment. I'm only available friday. This is just until uni is over so if you decide to do another day, i'd still be keen when uni finishes.
I'm 23 with a 3 and a half year old son.

What about friday next week? Wednesday is the day before pay day and i have already blown my budget!:shame:

We could go to a park in the southern park lands or to the glover playground north, botanic gardens, museum(my DS loves the museum), zoo, ect...:) Or there is a good indoor play centre on north east road. It usd to be called jack in the box. It cost's $6 to get in :)

What is happening with this? I am still keen if everyone else is?
Friday would be okay or maybe the week after if it is a bit late for people to organise - don't mind where it is but i'd prefer somewhere with easy parking :D

AmberMama

Friday is still good with me but it will need to be in the morning as I have another commitment at 2pm. I would prefer a park over anything else as my DD tends to get highly overstimulated by being inside and we have a long day on Friday (but that's just my preference - am happy to go along with whatever). I agree with MM on the easy parking though - maybe Elder Park and we can park under the Festival theatre? Or if anyone else has one definite suggestion then I'm all ears!

MothersMilk

Sounds good (not familiar with where the glover playgound is but i'm sure i can figure it out).
Did you mean 30th of October poppetfish - or did you want to hold off until November?

MothersMilk

21-10-2009, 07:33

Oh cr@p i just remembered i have my morph scan on the 30th Oct in the morning.

Oh cr@p i just remembered i have my morph scan on the 30th Oct in the morning.

I did mean the 30th october. I am just getting baths done and breakfast ready. lol.

How about another day then. What about monday the 26th of OCTOBER:laughing:

Also the Glover Playground North is at the end of Tynte street in the parklands on the eastern side of North Adelaide.

MothersMilk

21-10-2009, 07:51

:laughing: Sounds good.
How about everyone else - what day is good for you?

Monday is perfect for me. We are off to Melbourne on Thursday morning so that will work out nicely.

Shall we all bring a plate to share?

Poppetfish

22-10-2009, 07:10

My DS has severe allergies so any food that we would be sharing has to be sesame and tree nut free. He even reacts from cross contamination. It is up to other people if you would prefer to just bring your own food or try to work around allergies.

How about we do a cheese plate and everyone brings some cheese and a few bits of fruit and i bring some biscuits as well. Just no blue cheeses or unparsterised cheeses for MM. Is that a good idea?

MothersMilk

22-10-2009, 21:13

Sounds like a plan poppetfish, i certainly don't want to accidentally bring anything that your son could react to.
So should we lock in the park on Monday?
What time suits everyone? I'd prefer morning-ish.

Poppetfish

23-10-2009, 07:03

I would also like the morning. 10am is the best.:)

MothersMilk

23-10-2009, 07:05

10am would be perfect for me.

Hi there - I would have liked to come a long but I am busy on Monday. I will try and make the next one though!! Have fun :)

Poppetfish

I cant come any more. I have come down with something and i keep :barf: every hour or so.

Sorry for the late notice.

Things are very hectic with me at the moment so maybe another time would be better anyway.
Hope you feel better poppetfish.

Oh Poppetfish I am sorry you aren't feeling well. I hope you get better soon.

We are off to Melbourne on Thursday for a week so I'll be unavailable until at least the 4th, but after that I'm free again and hopefully things will be convenient for everyone else too. Will post closer to the time to see when suits everyone :)
